Consolidated cargo turnover of NCSP Group for January-August 2020 against the same period the year before 

Normalized[1] cargo turnover of NCSP Group (LSE: NCSP, MOEX: NMTP) totaled 76.2 million tons.

Liquid cargo

Transshipment of liquid cargo was down by 16.6 million tons (-21.3%) to 61.2 million tons. The main drivers of this indicator's dynamics were crude oil turnover (-29.6% or 15.8 million tons) against the background of the overall decrease in such cargo turnover at Russian ports which was due to the global COVID-related trends. However, transshipment of light oil products was up by 0.2 million tons (or +1.3%).

Dry cargo

Transshipment of dry cargo amounted to 15 million tons (-13.1%, or 2.3 million tons), including 4.6 million tons of bulk cargo (+10,5%, or 0.4 million tons). The increase in bulk cargo transshipment partially offset the decline in ferrous metal and cast iron turnover as their transshipment volume amounted to 6.4 million tons (-19.7%, or 1.6 million tons).
